Mexico

This is just weird. Evidently, Mexico is protesting our plans to build a wall because... it is shameful to force someone to live in Mexico?

Mexican President Vicente Fox denounced the U.S. measures, passed by the House of Representatives on Friday, as "shameful" and his foreign secretary, Luis Ernesto Derbez, echoed his complaints on Tuesday.

Why would the President of Mexico think it is shameful to keep his own people in his own country?

As I understand it, the wall is supposed to curtail illegal immigration. Legal immigrants, as always, are welcome to apply.

It gets better.

Jose Luis Soberanes, head of the government's National Human Rights Commission, suggested Mexico go further. "I would expect more energetic reactions from our authorities," Soberanes told local media. "It's preferable to have a more demanding government, more confrontation with the United States."

Yeah, right, Scooter. The last thing you want to do is get confrontational with the United States. Why do you think that we have Fort Hood, Fort Huachuca, Fort Irwin, and Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center near the Southern Border?

The problem of the Mexican border is too complex to deal with in a few short sentences, but this article deserved a little fisking.

Shameful to keep Mexicans in Mexico. Yeah. Okay.

Merry Christmas, Mexico.
